I'll Stay and Sit When You Go Away
This was my third time with Diane as my petsitter. I felt very fortunate to have her taking care of B, my cat, and my home. She is truly amazing and I hope she will be able to return for future sits.

I will treat your home/property/pets as I would my own.
Robert was as good as advertised. Great communication all around with regular updates during the sit. Gave the doggos a bath, reset linens, and left the house cleaner than he found it.
Dan
Providing Pet Sitting in the Merrimac, Massachusetts
Animal lovers wanting to travel the world and get pet cuddles along the way!!
Cindy and Dan are real pros - absolutely wonderful! We feel really lucky that they saw our sitting request and pursued staying with Kona for our long 25 day trip. We had a zoom call while they were sitting in Asia, and felt confident that we could trust them with our dog and our house. Their communication before and during the sit was perfect and thorough. They sent us many photos and videos every single day of our trip, and indulged me in long exchanges about how much I love Kona. It was obvious that they gave her all the love during their stay too. Kona got to go on her twice a day ball walks in the national forest near us, and she got to go on lots of excursions with them as well. She's a lab, so we needed sitters who would exercise her multiple times a day. Cindy and Dan are athletes too so fulfilled Kona's need for movement. It was obvious that Kona was comfortable and she even seemed to be confused when Cindy and Dan left the house at the end. We are so grateful for the love and time they put into making it a great experience, and I hope they feel the same about their time in the Colorado foothills with Kona the chocolate lab. Thank you, guys!! All the best, and keep in touch!
Timothy

Dependable, trustworthy, empathetic, caring.
Tim was an excellent sitter from start to finish. He was kind, organized, and followed through on all home tasks. The house was very clean on my return, and my plants were thriving. I'd love to have him back and anyone would be lucky to have him! Thanks Tim!

Jennifer
Providing Pet Sitting in the Merrimac, Massachusetts
Go ahead and book that vacation. Your pets and home will be in good hands!!
From the moment we met, it was evident that Jenny has a genuine passion for animals. Her warm and welcoming demeanor put both me and Millie at ease, creating an instant connection that reassured me I had made the right choice. I highly recommend Jenny to anyone seeking a reliable, trustworthy, and caring individual to look after their home and furry family members. Your pet will not only be in capable hands but will also experience a level of love and attention that goes beyond expectations. Jenny went above and beyond to ensure my dog felt comfortable and loved. Regular updates, including photos, videos and messages, kept me informed about their activities and adventures. It was heartwarming to see my dog enjoying walks, playtime, and even some special treats—all tailored to meet Millie's needs. In addition to Jenny's exceptional pet-sitting skills, she demonstrated a respectful and responsible approach to house care. Coming home to a tidy house made my return even more pleasant.

Reviews from Dog Owners
Steve
Natalie took great care of it dog and cats! She was clean, organized, conscientious, and communicative. Our dog had a small cut on his foot and Natalie took great care to help him heal. I would highly recommend Natalie as a house sitter and pet sitter!
Abby
David and Elynn were fabulous pet sitters and house sitters. Our dog and rabbit were well-taken care of, the house was left even cleaner than when they arrived! I would highly recommend David and Elynn, and would happily have them again! David and Elynn took excellent care of our dog Cosmo and our rabbit Oreo. They made sure they were happy, well-fed, and got exercise and fresh air! We were very happy to receive several photos of our furry friends while we were away. They took amazing care of the house and yard, and were very open with communication. If they were uncertain of anything or had a question, they were very open about reaching out! David and Ellyn were wonderful houseguests, who left the house even cleaner than they found it! I would highly recommend David and Elynn and their two adorable children. They are wonderful, respectful people who definitely love animals and will give your pets and home lots of care! Thank you!! :)
Natalie
Kelly was an excellent sitter for us. She communicated well, before the sit and during the sit. When we got home, the dogs and our guinea pig were happy and well. Kelly was dependable and showed up exactly on time. The house was well maintained and clean when we arrived home. We would definitely host Kelly again.
Sheri
We could not have asked for a better house sitter than Myria! She is kind, personable, organized, responsible communicative and more...She read all of our instructions before arriving and asked lots of questions about our pups to make sure she understood their personalities and schedules. You can tell she truly is a dog lover. Myria provided regular updates and we felt 100% confident leaving our dogs in her care. We came back to a home that was spotless - you could hardly tell she had been here. I'd highly recommend Myria as your next zeewoi!
Ruth
Cindy was great, couldn’t have asked for a better sitter experience! Communication was great both before and during the sit. Cindy was really helpful and flexible with arrival and departure arrangements. I came back to a happy dog and a well cared for house, can thoroughly recommend 🙂
Sally & Andy
Lori is the best of the best! I would recommend her 100 times over! Lori is great at communicating and our dogs were extremely happy. She was very attuned to our dog’s anxiety and did a great job making the dogs feel safe and loved. The house was spotless when we returned. Lori also had the job of taking care of my numerous plants. I have to say the plants look better when I got home than they did before I left😂 Lori has a green thumb. Lori is so kind and just a wonderful person. Rest assured if you choose her as your sitter your dog and home are in the best hands. Thank you again, Lori! Blessings!
Andrew
Brian is awesome - he is simply the best pet sitter and house sitter that we have EVER had and we've had a bunch. He is experienced, thoughtful, respectful, loving, appreciative, helpful, enthusiastic...the list just goes on. Started with our initial call - it was our first sit with zeewoi and he immediately instilled confidence in us in how he talked about his experience and how he saw his role. In the pre-planning, he had great questions for us and helped us to get organized. He was thorough through the instructions, came in a day early to make sure he understood everything about our house and our dog and then followed through on everything. He even drove us to the airport and picked us up on the return. Along the way we were gone, he sent us pictures and kept us updated - always making us feel good about being away and knowing Jorge and the house were in great hands. We had workers coming to fix a fence while gone and some other activity at the house - he was helpful, available, and willing to do whatever was needed to be done. He was self-sufficient and when it came time to leave, he had everything organized and cleaned at the house - he left it in better condition than he received it. We would love to have Brian sit whenever we are away (and in fact will invite him and hope he says yes!) - any one would be lucky to have Brian as their house and pet sitter.
Linda
They took very good care of my pets which involved feeding cats twice daily, fish once or twice a day and filling up fountain for birds. Animals were healthy and happy when I returned. Nothing was lost or broken, and Diane even found a lost grinder part that had fallen into the cats food while I was using it. They are a pleasant couple. They were invited from Wednesday to Sunday. They arrived on Monday so had 3 days instead of one to learn the pets routine. They also informed me that they wouldn't be leaving until Monday morning, but that worked out well since I was mistaken about the end date of my cruise and couldn't get home until Monday. Everything was left neat, but I had minor housekeeping to do (clean sink, fingerprints off glass table, sweep floor). They are older than stated on the profile, which they said only allows 65 as a top age. 68 and 73. Bruce has health problems that requires he sleeps sitting up in a chair that has a leg lift, which luckily I had, so he slept in my living room. They are fine caring for cats, but my friend with a dog decided to find another sitter rather than leave him with them (she was going to pay) because they seem somewhat frail.
Anne
The two-leggeds and four-legged members of this household give Tess a 5-star rating! We think she's one of the best sitters you will find - highly communicative, friendly, competent, reliable, and great with pets. Tess was also flexible about start and end dates to accomodate possible winter weather complications. For this sit, Tess was able to bring along her mom, Cathy. Tess introduced me to Cathy during one of our Skype conversations prior to the sit. It was a bonus to have her here with Tess. Their travel to Marquette was complicated by weather. A fierce winter storm swept across Michigan just before the sit. It took Tess and Cathy two days to drive here but they arrived, as promised, in time for us to fly out early the next morning. We even had time for a lovely dinner together and to introduce them to the dogs and house. We left the next day and never had a moment's worry while Tess and Cathy were caring for our pets and home. Tess sent us regular updates and photos. The dogs immediately accepted them as great new additions to their pack of friends - even our cranky, old chihuahua, Nike! We returned to happy pets and a spotlessly clean home. We plan to invite Tess (and Cathy if available) to return for future sits. Thank you, Tess and Cathy!

I cannot thank Jenny and Geoff enough for stepping in at the last minute after the original sitter cancelled. They are a great couple, friendly , organised and extremely capable. Also they LOVE animals. My dog and cat have clearly been given a great deal of care and attention in my absence. Jenny kept in touch with notes and lovely photos, Geoff cut my grass and I came home to a spotlessly sparkling house ! Thank you so much! Jenny and Geoff are welcome back anytime and I would not hesitate to recommend them as excellent sitters.

A Walk In The Bark
Recent Reviews:
Unfortunately, this daycare does not know how to work with high energy dogs, so if your dog is high energy, I would not recommend bringing them here. They told me via email to never bring my dog back. That should have been a phone call and was a bad business decision in my eyes.
Meghan went above and beyond for my dog when she stayed there. My pup had a bladder infection and Meghan took time out of her day to bring her to the vet. My pup gets all her puppy energy out during the day and is sound asleep by the time we get home and gets so excited to go there. We love A Walk in the Bark!
My Rocky spends an avg. Of 1 week when he goes there and he comes home happy and not stressed. Worth every dime.
I have trusted them with my lovable boxer for 3 years now while away. Never have been disappointed when picking him up.
Freat olace for the dogs when we need to be out of town, really nice, caring people.
My dogs best friends all hang out there!
Rocky loves his visits here.
Absolutely the best day care and boarding!

Bed and Biscuit Country Boarding Inn
Recent Reviews:
I love my dogs like they are my children. I never thought I’d find a kennel that met my standards and I could completely trust but I did with Bed and Biscuit. The kennel is a nice size, roomy pens, clean and in a charming, farm setting. The owner and staff love the dogs and welcome them like they are their own. This is the only place I would leave my dogs.
Bed and Biscuit is a fantastic place to board your dog! Kathy and all the staff take such great care of our dogs Cooper and Piper! We’ve tried different boarding options in the past and the dogs never seemed happy but I can tell they LOVE it there! And it’s comforting to know they’re in good hands while we’re away!!
I felt comfortable leaving my dog here and felt like she was in good hands. Nice, clean kennel and friendly staff. My dog seemed happy when I picked her up. I would recommend this place and will use them again. Thank you for taking such good care of Soph! :)
We have been using Bed and Biscuit Country Boarding Inn for many years! The owner is fantastic! The place is warm and welcoming. I wouldn't go anywhere else! Simply the best!
Boarded my dog for a long weekend. The owner and people were all very friendly and nice. I had called to check on Harry and received a phone call back to ease my nerves. Harry seemed fine after picking him up . So I am sure he had a great time.
Bed and biscuit is great! Kathy and her team do an amazing job with our 3 year old golden, Goose, whenever we are out of town. He is always super eager to go inside when we get there and I know they give him so much love!!
Wonderful place,my min pin had a great time ...he had never boarded since we rescued him 4 years ago and like typical min pin has anxiety and we thought he didnt like people..we picked up a changed dog,who was relaxed and happy.He loved taking 3 walks a day,and even gave Kathy a kiss the night before we came home...he has never kissed anyone else! I think he would highly recommend staying here...woof 🐾
Great country setting with plenty of outdoor space. Boris loves the trail walks!
Very nice people and my pup was treated very well!!
Fantastic service; clean, modern facilities. My dog loves it here.
Free Dog
Recent Reviews:
Free Dog is honestly the best. I am not typically the kind of person to leave a review one way or another, but I feel that this place genuinely deserves it. I have used them a few times now and they are consistently amazing. The staff there are so friendly, knowledgeable, and understanding. The facility is clean and has a very cozy feel to it, which I truly believe makes my dogs feel more at ease when I board them. They are extremely thorough in getting to know your dog's from everything to health issues to temperament to how they like to play best. I feel that my dogs are safe and very well taken care of while they are there. I had tried countless places before finding free dog and now I will never go anywhere else. I even changed the dates of a planned vacation once because they did not have availability. I love getting to see photos of my dogs everyday and I can tell from the photos and from their behavior when I pick them up that my dogs are happy here. I would also like to add that I highly recommend Free Dog to anyone with dogs that need one on one play instead of group play. Other places I have boarded my dogs have very clearly not given them any real play time. At Free Dog they will actually play with your dogs and your dogs will go home tired but in the best way!
FreeDog is our favorite groomer! I have a 100 lb Doddle who is very spirited and nervous. He starts wagging his tail as soon as we pull in. Once we get inside and he sees Emily he can barely contain himself! He always comes back to us looking and smelling great and most importantly, very happy! Emily is the best!
This was our first time using Free Dog for boarding our two dogs, Guinness & Bailey. We were so nervous leaving them due to Guinness' cancerous tumor & seizures. The loving care of our pups & your compassionate, dedicated staff was incredible. And the facility was perfect. You helped us relax more knowing both were in such special place & you can tell they really loved their stay with you. You helped our Guinness enjoy his last boarding experience. We will definitely bring Bailey again. What a blessing it was to hear about Free Dog!
Such a great place! I felt so comfortable leaving my baby. From intake to check out the communication was great. I knew he was in good hands. The pictures they post every day made it even better!
This was our first time having Oliver groomed at Free Dog. They have done an amazing job. The best grooming we have ever had done for him. I recommend them 100%.
First time for my senior dog at a kennel. He was taken good care of at Free Dog and even had play time with other seniors. He has some medical issues. They were great in tending to his needs and giving his meds. Felt so comfortable leaving him. I’d highly recommend Free Dog.
Olson loves going “Camping” at Free Dog! The Staff is kind and communicates with photos and texts during his stay. Thank you for allowing us to enjoy our vacations, knowing Olson is safe and happy at Free Dog
We’ve used Free Dog for boarding twice, and they were absolutely amazing both times! I love that you can text with the staff to check on your dogs, and there is someone in the building 24/7, so your pups are never alone over night. They even fed my dog chicken and rice and transitioned her back to her regular diet when she was recovering from an upset tummy. I highly recommend Free Dog. Our dogs will be thrilled to return for their next stay this fall!
I am so grateful to the women I met in the park who told me about Free Dig! What a great feeling to know that when I pick her up I’m going to love the spa-like care Sarah gave my Ruby and the perfect cut every time!
I cannot say enough about Cindy and her staff! They’re wonderful and my dog is full of excitement the minute we turn on the street to go to Free Dog! I would give 5 starts except there’s a set schedule and limited days to use daycare. This is understandable due to small groups needed to match dogs with different temperaments. Cindy puts a lot of care into matching each group member. It’s not a negative unless you need certain days or FT daycare. Highly recommend!!

Our pup has the best experience at DRL - it’s like being at summer camp! She runs around, goes for hikes, and plays with friends. We also love that she’s not kenneled when she stayed overnight. The owner is lovely & posts lots of pics so you can see what your dog is up to while you’re away!
We’ve brought our dogs on multiple occasions and they come back exhausted and happy as can be. It’s amazing and for such an great price. The staff are knowledgeable and good with our two dogs and make sure to do slow introductions with other dogs. They even send you pictures throughout day of your fur baby having a blast to ease your mind. I highly recommend
We send our 2 dogs there a couple days a week. They absolutely love it and come home completely exhausted. They go on hikes and play all day with many other dogs inside and out. The “home/farm” atmosphere for the pups is so much better than the kennel and small yards that other daycares tend to offer. DRL is highly recommend! ❤️
We have 3 dogs and Delacia and her staff take excellent care of them. Even the fussy one. Highly recommended
My min pin loves it...esp the hikes off leash.Great team
Alison and her crew are just awesome !
We wouldn’t bring our dog anywhere else.
I would NEVER leave my dog anywhere else
It’s the only local place we refer clients. ❤️
Best daycare in the area by far.
Playtime Pet Resort - Salisbury

We LOVE Playtime Pet Resort!!! And Moose does too! When we get off the exit, he knows exactly where we are going and the tail doesn’t stop. The staff are so wonderful and take such amazing care of all the pups. And not to mention, they take photos daily and it makes my heart so happy to see our baby having the best day!!! We feel so fortunate to have such wonderful people caring and looking after our pup.
Playtime Pet Resort is a safe, wonderful place for our little pup Nova. She loves it there and we love the staff! Always willing to go the extra mile for us because our schedules are so crazy! Staff really loves Nova and treats her right! Price is great and we would recommend them to anyone! Favorite staff members too many to list! Love them all!!
My dachshund buckwheat loves going to playtime. The staff are awesome and he looks forward to seeing them more than the dogs. Terry is a great manager and they are lucky to have her! I always recommend to others.
Angel and I love Playtime Pet Resort in Salisbury! The staff is wonderful! I love looking at the pictures they post. She always looks so happy to be there. I also love how I can drop her off no appointment necessary. I am retired so I don't bring her on a regular schedule just when I am going to be out for an extended period of time. It makes it so convenient for me. Have not boarded her overnight yet but I will not hesitate if the need arises.
The staff at Playtime Pet Resort in Salisbury are outstanding! They love our dog and provide excellent care for daycare, and we also trust them with boarding! They have wonderful add-on opportunities to give your pet extra love when you are away. Our dog always loves his time!
My dog, Arlo, loves to go to Playtime Pet Resort! The staff is always friendly and professional and really show that they're true dog lovers. Everyone always remembers his name too! I bring him frequently during the day and also board him when I go away. I couldn't be happier with their service!
Just brought my two dogs here for the first time. Very easy registration on their website. They had a great first day and now home….nice and tired!! Staff very attentive!!
1st day at Playtime Pet Resort. Space is attractive annd immaculate. Staff greeted me and my dog quickly at front desk . She was friendly reassuring and upbeat Received a “ report card “ at pick up My pup is exhausted after an apparently fun day at Playtime !!
Our dogs go there and they love it. They know exactly where they are going when they’re on their way and get so excited as soon as we pull into the parking lot. The facility also has a ton of extras for the dogs (ie bacon bubbles, one on one playtime, and other fun treats). We love taking them, and they come home pooped everytime !!
We love Playtime Pet Resort in Salisbury. We have sent our dog, Sniper there for about 3 years for day stays and for over nights too. Thanks for always loving him when he visits.
Cindys Pet Care & Grooming, Dog Day Care, Boarding
Recent Reviews:
Cindy is wonderful! She has been helping me with my dogs for over 20 years. Currently I have a very fearful female rescue who I would never take to anyone but Cindy. She comes out looking great and happy with her clip. Cindy is a true dog person and can handle any aspect of dog management - walking, boarding, grooming and overall loves what she does.
First time at Cindy’s with my toy Aussie and she did an amazing job. Not only was she able to get me in the following week, which was perfect because he was overdue for a groom. Cindy cut him down perfectly he is so cute! Pictures speak for themselves thank you Cindy! We will be back, might try doggy daycare one day.
Kirby was immediately excited to go to Cindy's for daycare. He has been going to her daycare for over a year - 1-3x per week. Cindy is always accommodating if I need to bring him extra days. He whines with excitement when we get close to her house and when I pick him up, he is so tired and ready to snuggle. Thank you so much for taking good care of my boy, Cindy!
My dog, Jack, absolutely loves going to daycare at Cindy’s! He is so excited when I drop him off, and he comes home happy and tired after a full day of playing with the other dogs :) I’ve also used Cindy for dog boarding and highly recommend her! She took great care of Jack.
Cindy offers a more personal approach to dog care with a private outdoor setting along with indoor accommodations which allow the dogs a laid back stress free environment. Cindy’s obvious love for dogs, professionalism and personal care are the reasons I bring my boy here
Cindy has the best doggy day care around! She is attentive, responsive, and friendly, and her day care is set up and run perfectly. Best of all, she loves dogs. She always take fun pictures of them and sends those to my wife and I, which we really appreciate! I don’t know what we would do without Cindy.
My dog has been going to Cindy for over 5 years. He looks forward to going on his daycare days. Her yard is large and spacious with fun things for the dogs to play with. Her basement is air conditioned and has several crates and beds where the dogs can take a break from the fun outside. She also does grooming, which my dog typically hated before going to Cindy. She always shares photos of their fun and even gives them presents at Christmas (owners included). Highly recommend her daycare to anyone looking.
Cindy has the perfect environment for dogs to safely play with a large fenced in yard and plenty of shade, she is an experienced groomer and I will not bring my Pomeranian anywhere else! My dog comes home happy and smelling good for weeks after being pampered! Highly recommend!
Cindy provides an excellent dog care services including daycare, grooming and boarding. It stems from her caring about the dogs she services and their owners. She is thoughtful, caring and respectful of each dogs and owners needs. In addition, she has thorough knowledge on dog care and discipline. I recommend her services.
Our dog Pip loves Cindy's! He was a fearful rescue when he started, and going to Cindy's with all his friends has helped him grow so much. He comes home from daycare tired and happy from playing all day. Cindy is communicative, takes great care of the doggos, and we're lucky to have her do what she does!

Fantastic group of people! And watching them shows they love their jobs ❤️ our wheaten terrier came home so happy and looking amazing!
They are located in Newton, NH now. Only about 10 minutes from Merrimac. I brought my cat in for the first time today and they were wonderful. Super kind and knowledgeable. My cat developed mats on her backside and they took extremely good care of her. We will definitely be back! Thank you.
I got my haircut my nails done and the staff stroked me in all the right ways. I recommend this place to anyone.
